The Government of Assam on Wednesday organised State-wide blood donation camps across all districts, as part of the Seva Saptah, a weeklong programme of socially significant activities from September 17 to September 25, 2025, coinciding with the 75th birthday of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
The Health & Family Welfare Department of the State, in collaboration with the Assam State Blood Transfusion Council, took the initiative in conducting 75 blood donation camps, which witnessed enthusiastic participation from people across all walks of life. Senior government officials, staff members, representatives of civil society organisations, and members of the general public voluntarily came forward to donate blood in large numbers. The initiative, which resulted in the collection of 3,167 units of blood, reflects the collective spirit of service and responsibility towards society, while also strengthening the state's healthcare preparedness.
